Why Suffering? by Ravi Zacharias

Why Suffering? by Ravi Zacharias

Why would an all-good and all-powerful God create a world full of pain and suffering? In WHY SUFFERING? Ravi Zacharias and Vince Vitale carefully walk you through a variety of responses that considered cumulatively provide a clear, comprehensive, and convincing answer. Responses like: - The good in the world would be lost if we lost the possibility of the bad. - The creation of a world without suffering would have meant our probable nonexistence. - The cross is the key to a compelling and rational explanation for trust in God in the face of the worst kind of suffering. - In comparison with other world religions, the Christian response is distinctive. - A good creator can allow suffering if he also provides the sustaining power to stand against it. - Relational knowledge about God takes the argument beyond reason to the presence of God amidst suffering. - God's decision to allow temporal suffering makes sense in light of an eternal perspective. - Divine goodness shows how to conquer not in spite of, but even through suffering. Here is a book written with great respect for the complexity of the issue, recognizing that some who read it will be in the trenches of deep suffering themselves and others in a faith crisis about the very existence of a loving God. WHY SUFFERING? provides an answer to the problem of pain and suffering with emotional sensitivity and intellectual integrity.

Ravi Zacharias is the founder and chairman of the board of Ravi Zacharias International Ministries, headquartered in Atlanta, Georgia, with additional offices in Canada, Hong Kong, India, Singapore, the United Kingdom, and the United Arab Emirates. Dr. Zacharias and his wife, Margie, have three grown children. He is the author of many books, including Can Man Live Without God and Why Jesus?

Dr. Vince Vitale, born in NYC and raised in a family one generation removed from Mafia heritage, went to study philosophy at Princeton University and there took an unexpected journey that led him to God. In his PhD, Vince went on to develop a new response to the problem of evil. He now teaches at Wycliffe Hall of Oxford University, is Senior Tutor at the Oxford Centre for Christian Apologetics, and is a speaker for RZIM.
